Dastgah of Segah
Hossein Fakhtei sings the verses of 19th-century poet Neshat Esfahani. Violinist Ali Tajvidi and drummer Nasser Eftetah accompany Fakhtei’s vocals. The violin is well suited for Persian music because microtones, necessary elements in Persian melodic and modal patterns, can easily be played on it.
